Russell F. Conn,
James G. Wagner, and
Andrew Dennington obtained summary judgment in the Superior Court of New Jersey (Somerset County) for a major professional liability insurer that its $5MM policy did not provide coverage for an underlying federal suit but that coverage instead was with the successor carrier. The court further awarded all attorneys fees incurred by the firm's client in defending the underlying claim. The case was resolved just before the court was about to rule on the client's motion for attorneys' fees in prosecuting the coverage action.
